When your image is as rumpled as the baggy gray sweatshirt that Vic Fangio favors wearing to work, nobody calls you a football genius. But to employ a term he likes, Uncle Vic is one tough sucker.
Getting rid of him as Broncos coach might be tougher than anyone thought.
While calls for his firing have been heard throughout Broncos Country for weeks, Fangio not only has Denver playing in its biggest game since Super Bowl 50, the often-dissed coach is among the best reasons to believe the Broncos can beat Cincinnati.
Do you trust Uncle Vic and these Broncos to win a game that’s crucial not only to the team’s playoff chances but also could make the difference between Fangio cleaning out his office at season’s end or returning to roam the Denver sideline in 2022?
